Mews–HubSpot Connector

Use Cases and Benefits

How do I connect Mews with HubSpot?

The Mews–HubSpot Connector by Make & Bridge creates a direct, automated connection between your Mews Property Management System (PMS) and HubSpot CRM. It syncs reservations, payments, guest profiles, and company data, so your sales and marketing teams can work from a single source of truth.

What are the main benefits of connecting Mews with HubSpot?

Hospitality organizations save time and reduce manual work. The Connector automatically syncs guest and company data, provides clear reporting on performance, and powers automation for sales, marketing, and operations.

Can the Mews-Hubspot Connector sync to my CRM?

Yes. The Mews–HubSpot Connector syncs directly with HubSpot CRM. If you use a different CRM, our team can review your setup and explore additional integration options.

What data gets synced from MEWS to HubSpot?

The Connector syncs key data types such as guests, companies, reservations, payments, and products (upsells). It also supports custom property mappings, ensuring the right data fields appear where you need them in HubSpot.

Can I choose which MEWS fields get synced?

Yes. During onboarding, you decide which Mews fields should sync to HubSpot. We guide you through a Data Mapping session to align your CRM with your operational and reporting goals.

Do I still need my CRM team or consultant?

Not during onboarding. Make & Bridge provides full guidance and support throughout the implementation, so you don’t need your CRM team or consultant at that stage.

How does this integration help multi-property hotel groups?

It unifies data from all properties into one or more HubSpot account(s). You can compare performance by property, region, or segment, track B2B partners, and automate communication based on booking details.

Can I track B2B and corporate clients through the Connector?

Yes. The Connector links Mews company or travel agency profiles with HubSpot company records, allowing you to monitor travel agencies, DMCs, and corporate clients directly in HubSpot.

How does the integration improve marketing automation?

HubSpot workflows can trigger personalized campaigns based on Mews booking data. For example, you can send pre-arrival emails, upsell offers, or loyalty invitations automatically.

How long does setup take?

A single-property setup can be as quick as 1 week. Multi-property groups may take longer depending on data complexity and custom fields.

Mews–HubSpot Connector

Technical and Integration

What permissions do you need in Mews and HubSpot?

We require admin access in both Mews and HubSpot during setup. This ensures the Connector can read and write data accurately across all relevant objects.

How often does data sync between Mews and HubSpot?

The sync runs automatically throughout the day. Most updates, such as new reservations or guest modifications, appear in HubSpot within minutes.

Does the Connector sync historical data?

Yes. You can choose to import past guests and reservations during the initial setup to have a complete CRM view from day one.

How secure is the data sync?

Data is transferred securely through the official Mews and HubSpot APIs. Make & Bridge does not store or share your data outside the systems involved in the integration.

Can we customize field mappings?

Yes. Custom field mapping is part of your onboarding. We help define which Mews data fields match your HubSpot structure, ensuring clean, consistent reporting.

What happens if Mews updates its API?

Make & Bridge continuously monitors API changes. When Mews releases new endpoints or modifies existing ones, our team updates the Connector accordingly to ensure uninterrupted service.

What happens if a reservation or guest changes in Mews?

The Connector automatically updates the corresponding HubSpot record. Modifications such as cancellations, date changes, or payments are reflected in real time.

Can we sync only certain properties or brands?

Yes. Multi-property setups can include one or multiple Mews properties. We can configure filters by property, segment, or portfolio.

What if we need custom reporting or dashboards?

You can create HubSpot dashboards to visualize booking, payment, and guest data. We also help design custom reports tailored to your sales or marketing goals.

How much does it cost?

Pricing for the Mews–HubSpot Connector depends on the number of properties and rooms, as well as the number and types of Mews fields that need to sync with HubSpot. We’ll review your setup and provide a clear, tailored proposal that fits your specific needs.

What kind of support do you provide after setup?

Make & Bridge offers ongoing technical support, updates, and monitoring. You can reach us directly for troubleshooting, new feature requests, or additional property connections.

Custom Booking Engine

Use Cases and Benefits

What makes the Custom Booking Engine different from the standard Mews engine?

The Make & Bridge Custom Booking Engine allows hospitality teams to design flexible, branded booking flows connected directly to Mews. It supports long-stay, retreat, and group bookings and allows you to offer custom features beyond Mews' default booking engine.

Who is the Custom Booking Engine built for?

It’s ideal for retreat centers, long-stay residences, guest ranches, student housing, and wellness resorts that need more flexibility in their booking flow or guest information collection. It’s also a great fit for hotels that require custom booking features not possible in standard booking engines like the default Mews engine.

Do I need HubSpot to use the Custom Booking Engine?

No. HubSpot integration is optional. The engine works independently with Mews but can also connect to your CRM for guest lifecycle automation if desired.

What are the main benefits for operators?

Operators save time, reduce manual follow-ups, and deliver a more branded experience. The engine automates guest data collection, payment processing, and onboarding tasks.

Can couples or groups book together?

Yes. The engine supports group and couple bookings within the same flow, capturing all relevant guest information in a single reservation.

Can I collect custom guest information?

Yes. You can collect details like travel schedules, dietary preferences, consent forms, and contract signatures before arrival.

Can the booking engine handle monthly or program-based pricing?

Yes. It supports long-stay and program-based bookings, including tiered or dynamic monthly pricing.

Is it mobile-friendly and customizable?

Absolutely. The Custom Booking Engine is designed for a modern user experience, fully responsive across devices, and branded to match your website design.

How long does implementation take?

Implementation can be as quick as 4 weeks. The total timeline depends on the complexity of your booking flow, design requirements, and any additional customizations or integrations needed with your Mews setup.

How much does it cost?

Pricing for the Custom Booking Engine is based on the number of properties, rooms, booking types, and the level of design and functional customization required. We’ll provide a tailored proposal after reviewing your goals and requirements.
